Every Asahi Linux repository is moving to GPL v2 or later, after bad actors lifted unreleased code and ran it through LLMs to hide where it came from.

    I don’t disagree - I’m not saying permissive licenses are necessarily the right call today :)

      I mean stealing code was always possible, nowadays with AI and apparently copyright not existing anymore, nobody enforces anything anymore. They seem to only be enforced with actual copy pasting of code, which is not a “today” thing
